so an electronic kettle is like a coffee machine for tea? thats funny because like coffee machines are normal but if you have a french press you're a fag but in the uk people have coffee machines for tea or sometimes mabye like normal teapots but either way they're still fags. hahah what a world we live in...

i know two people with electric kettles. neither of them were born in america, though.

on the job front, i have an interview in two weeks that will determine my future for the long-term. if i get it, i will have a career. if i dont, im moving to thailand and faking my own death to get out from under this massive amount of debt. take that federal govt!

the reason i wanted a formal university program is so that i can learn literary chinese at the same time in case i want to do academic stuff with it. i could teach myself with books, tapes, movies and tutors and such i guess but i dunno it would have been better if i could start in january.
